- This Sunday was
so nice outside that the six kids and I brought our chairs out for our
bible story. We read about two sisters named Mary and Martha; how Martha
was full of pride and was more concerned about preparation of food and
cleaning instead of enjoying the company of Jesus in her home and
listening to what he had to say like Mary was doing. I explained a little
about the laws in those times how women weren't allowed to do as Mary did
and that it was a shock when Jesus kindly got after Martha for getting
angry with Mary (at this time I added that even Jesus doesn't like a
tattle tale).
- I then asked the kids
what they could do different in their day to be more like Mary, so they
all agreed that they should pray before they start their day and when it
was finished. When our story time and discussion time was over, we brought
our chairs back into our room and watched a short movie about our story
with our snack, did a crossword puzzle and colored it, and then finished
the morning with a prayer and drawing with chalk on the sidewalk outside
until the adults came downstairs for coffee and fellowship time.
- Thank you to Gracie
for being such a great help setting up the movie and helping to pass out
the snacks and drinks to the kids with me! Just a reminder that Vacation
Bible School is July 26 - 29th from 10am - 1pm. All kids going into K-6th
grade are welcome to join our "Swimming in the Word" fun.
